"The EVIL LEFT is really going after YOU and I'm just standing in the way!"- Donald John Trump

"The EVIL LEFT is really going after YOU and I'm just standing in the way!"- Donald John Trump If tRUMP was around during the lives of Winston Churchill, Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, Abraham Lincoln, et al I have no doubt their descriptions of the manchild would add many more quotes to this blog. The only thing he stands in the way of is a functioning Democracy.

Brandy, Brandy, you are trying to compare a child's stick figure drawing to Leonardo da Vinci's drawing of a man famously known as the Vitruvian Man. If tRUMP was around during the lives of Winston Churchill, Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, Abraham Lincoln, et al I have no doubt their descriptions of the manchild would add many more quotes to this blog. The only thing he stands in the way of is a functioning Democracy.

I love these sort of quotes. F*** you; can at times be a suitable come back. But I admire a riposte where more though has gone into it. The nudist camp sign is great aswell.

"🤣🤣🤣Sharp blades! I love it! Clear words! Fuck you and leave me alone! (Only addressed to maga and aluminum hat wearers!!!) 🕊️" This is called SARCASM, CYNISSM!!! This is mostly contained in the quotes above! If my comment is rejected, why are such illustrious names as quoted above accepted? They could, were allowed and took the liberty to "enjoy" 2 bottles of high-proof alcohol in one evening???
